NEW Outlook Feature: Follow a Meeting

Microsoft Outlook introduces the 'Follow a Meeting' feature, which allows you to stay updated on meetings you can't attend. Instead of 'Tentative,' choose 'Follow a Meeting' to notify the organizer and potentially prompt recording. This feature is available on the new Outlook desktop and web version but not on the classic desktop. In this video, I demonstrate how to use this feature and explain its benefits for organizers and attendees.

✅How "Follow a Meeting" Works
When you receive a meeting invitation, you'll notice a new option alongside the familiar "Accept" and "Decline" buttons. Here's how it works:
* Select "Follow a Meeting" instead of "Tentative" when you can't attend
* The meeting organizer is notified that you're following the meeting
* When the meeting starts, the organizer is prompted to record it
* You gain access to any meeting recordings, recaps, and notes

✅Compatibility and Availability
It's important to note that this feature is currently available on:
* The new Outlook desktop application
* Outlook on the web (browser-based version)

Unfortunately, the "Follow a Meeting" feature is not supported in the classic Outlook desktop application. As Microsoft continues to roll out updates, it's worth keeping an eye on future compatibility expansions.

The "Follow a Meeting" feature offers advantages for both meeting organizers and participants:

● For Organizers:
